Book of Mormon

The Book of Mormon is the sacred text of the LDS Church, which adherents believe contains writings of ancient prophets who lived in the Americas from approximately 2200 BC to 421 AD. In was first published in March 1830 by Joseph Smith, who claimed that the book had been written in "reformed Egyptian" engraved on golden plates. The last prophet, Moroni, buried it in the Hill Cumorah in present-day Manchester, New York, and then returned to the Earth as an angel in 1827. Smith was told the location of the plates, and he was instructed to translate the plates into English for use in the restoration of Jesus' true church in the latter days before the end times. As of 2011, more than 150 million copies of the book had been published.
